Communities are more likely to accept significant new growth if it means that significant new infrastructure will also be provided. In fact, pressure for growth will be inevitable. By planning for growth and identifying the infrastructure that this requires, the local authority is in a stronger position to bid for infrastructure funding from central government. The document accepts that capacity on local rail lines is already an issue. Further development can and should lead to improvements in infrastructure.
